Salman,

Slony don't do automatic failover. And we would appreciate a system with automatic failover :(

Peter,

We are doing vacuum full every alternate day. We also do vacuum analyze very
often.
We are currently using 8.1.3 version.
Auto vacuum is already on. But the table1 is so busy that auto vacuum don't
get sufficient chance to vacuum it :(.

Have already tried all the option listed by you, thats y we reached to the
decision of having a replication sytsem. So any suggestion on that :).

Thanx

We use slony for exactly this type of a situation. It's not the most user-friendly piece of software, but it works well enough that I can schedule maintenance windows (we're a 24/7 shop) and do clustering and other tasks on our DB to reclaim space, etc.
